SCALE EFFECTS W WAVE ACTION THROUGH POROUS STRUCTURES

Electromagnetic Wave Propagation in Periodic Porous Structures

We employ a homogenization procedure to describe the propagation of electromagnetic waves in a dielectric structure which is doubly-periodic in the X-Y plane and of arbitrary variation in the direction of propagation, Z. The fundamental cell is composed of an arbitrarily shaped pore filled with a dielectric and the host by another. Our analysis yields the structure of the electromagnetic fields...

Effects of TeV Scale Gravity on e+e− → W+W−

We study the process e+e− → W+W− to probe low-scale gravity at high energy linear colliders. A characteristic signature of extra-dimensions models is the forward-backward asymmetry due to the interference of spin2 graviton and spin-1 SM gauge boson exchange terms, even when rightpolarised electron beam is used. Our analysis shows that larger than 5% asymmetry is possible at a linear collider wi...

A Parabolic Equation for Wave Propagation over Porous Structures

Nonlinear Wave Interaction with Submerged and Surface-piercing Porous Structures

A coupled Boussinesq-boundary integral method is developed to simulate nonlinear water wave interaction with structures consisting of multiple layers with different physical and hydraulic characteristics. The flow field in the water region is modeled with a modified set of Boussinesq-type equations, with additional terms to account for the flow of water into/out of the porous region. The equati...

Transmission of longitudinal wave through micro-porous elastic solid interface

An investigation of reflection and transmission phenomena of plane longitudinal wave from a plane interface between two distinct micropolar porous elastic solid half-spaces in welded contact has been made. Using the method of potentials, the appropriate boundary conditions at the interface are solved to obtain the amplitudes of various reflected and transmitted waves. It has been noticed that t...
